If you would permit mo I should like to express omo views upon the expedi ency of averting stagnation in real estate by holding aurburban property at such prices as to drive away capital. I have had four different parties , non-rosidonte , looking for investment in this city , who after looking and comparing values hero , with Sioux City , Minneapolis and Kansas City , have decided in favor of the latter named places. Those were bona-fido investors , and 1 but volco the opinion of many when I say that the high figures asked by owners are a de triment rather than n help to the best interests of Omaha. Of course , everyone ono concedes that a thing is worth what it will bring in the market ; but there is no market for property at the maximum prices. It seems to mo tlmt n little caution now , realizing the condition of business generally , will avert a moro Borious and perhaps permanent depres sion.

The yard 3 of the Om aim Stockvards Co , nro receiving the finishing touches , All work on the yards proper is done , and they present a solid , substantial. And com plete appearance. There is nothing tem porary about thorn , The fences , roads and floors arc made of two-inch planks , firmly spiked and bolted. Water and feed troughs flank the inside of each pen , and stacks of hay nnd straw are piled up at convenient points. Supt. Boyd says the cattle yards will comfortably hold 8000 head , and the hog yards on the south side of the track are doomed ample for the trade for years to como. Besides the yards thcro is a patch of 2 10 acres on the west side , fenced , into which cattle will bo turned in case of a rush. The yards are now ready to receive and entertain stock from any direction. Representatives of all the heuvy commis sion houses in Chicago nro already hero , and business will commence at once. The Drexel mansion will bo used this year for ofiicos. Cloao by a boarding houbo and restaurant has been built to supply the wants of the hungry for the season. The company propose , early next season , to build a commodious oflico building and hotel on the knoll of tboDroxoll orchard , a beautiful site , now covered with young and thrifty fruit trees and heavily bearing grape vines. It is a pity that this orchard must bo partly if not wholly distroycd. Some of the older trees in front of the oflico build ing and cloao to the now boarding house are loaded with rod and golden apples , the branches drooping almost to the ground with the weight of abundance. But they must p o. The connection of the stock yard track with the TJ. P. was made aomo time ngo , and the necessary side tracks built. The connection with the B. & M. will not bo made for aomo time , possibly not this season , owing to the dlilicult and costly nature of the work on the B. & M. ex tension. The double track of the U. P. is laid beyond the yards , and will bo ex tended to Pappilion. Graders are now filling in between the tracks and stiffen- -ng Uio embankment. Work on the slaughter and packing house is being rushed. The boilor-houso is completed and the boilers in placo. The engines have boon placed on their foundation , and work on the shafting will commence immediately. Four largo boiling tanks , extending from the lower to the top floor , are in position in the southwest corner of the building , and the shuto from the yards to the top floor of the slaughter-house is well under way. Superintendent Boyd informed THE BEI : man that the building would bo completed and ready for business about the middle of September. Everything about nnd in the building ovldoncn the determination of the owners to make the plant thorough and complete for the business in view , using the best material and the latest improved machinery. All roada running south load to Haa- call'o park. The city acorns determined that patrons of that enclosure shall have a variety of routes graded and in good repair. Vinton street 'from Thirteenth to Twentieth has boon cut down on an average aboutfour , foot , andSixtoonth and Seventeenth , which intersect , are being put to grade from the U. P. track south. There are numerous heavy cuts and high fills , but both streets when completed will bo transformed from almost impassible roads , to level thorough fares. To rmiko them beneficial to the entire city , however , it will bo noeoasary to fill up or bridge from Loav- onworth to Pacific streets. Thirteenth street south of Vinton , is being graded down about four feet for a considerable distance , and property adjoining greatly improved. Graders on the B. & M. track are approaching preaching the summit. The road-bed rises gradually , as it uoars < the point where the bridge ever the U. P. track will bo built. There is still a vast amount of work to bo done , and it seems hardly poasiblo to complete the work before - fore winter. _ Sons of Veterans.

The wind was blowing quite strongly at the time and no water was obtainable. The most doaporato efforts to atop the flamoa were unavailing. The blaze quickly spread and soon enveloped velopod the business portion of the town The following business places nnct buildings were completely destroyed : Svrick's store. Ogalalla house , Cowboys' saloon. Turkor'a saloon. Windsor restaurant. Poatoflico. Barber shop. Railroad depot. The loss is § 14,000.

Any cosmetic tha at first impart a beautifying effect ana no apparently injure the skin , but in a ver ; short time little blotches and discolos tlons appear on the face which conclusively sivoly show the poisonous drugs in tha composition. It can bo safely said th moro than tiuo thirds of the face powder contain those injurious ingredients.
